Amazing silence, breathtaking views of Tuscan hills in all directions, magnificent sunrises and sunsets, a glittering canopy of stars at night...
If you are looking for an inviting, comfortable, spacious accommodation with unforgettable views of the classic Tuscan landscape, a stylish environment where everything is finished to the highest standard, caring hospitality and attention to detail by your hosts, Podere Salicotto is the choice for you.
Podere Salicotto is a traditionally styled Tuscan property, family owned, located in "Le Crete", or the Clay Hills, a spectacular terrain in the heart of Tuscany. Home to many jewels of Italian art and architecture such as the town of Siena, the Abbeys of Monte Oliveto Maggiore and Sant'Antimo, also the wine and cheese of Montalcino, Pienza and Montepulciano. All this awaits you in this beautiful, unspoiled landscape. Our location is an ideal base from which to explore Tuscany. Florence, San Gimignano, Volterra, Chianti, the coastal Maremma and ancient Etruscan towns of Pitigliano, Sovana and Sorano are all comfortable day trips from Podere Salicotto. We organize cooking classes and can arrange hikes, bike rides, horse riding or you can even enjoy a sailing trip on our 38 ft. Hallberg Rassy, in which we crossed the Atlantic before settling in Tuscany.
A minimum stay of 4 nights is recommended to take advantage of what is offered in the surrounding area and appreciate the relaxing pace of Tuscan life. See our suggested Day Trips to assist in the planning of your trip. Podere Salicotto is a perfect destination whether your holiday is orientated to activity or rest by our infinity pool. A romantic setting for newly wed.
